Hi,
When I boot into Linux and look at the config for my wifi device
and it says the device was "Last used 30 minutes Ago", what exactly does
that message mean? Does it mean what is says, or does it mean that was

What I am doing is simple.
I boot.
I get the graphical environment/display offering the user list (X).
Now 2 options
1) I login "normally" bu providing a password.
After that, the graphic freezes for a small while (1-2 Minute),
